Governors of 50 US States Response to Reopening

TX is supposed to plan reopening next week, I think. Lucky Texans. My state is also supposed to be considering it along with NY, NJ, RI, Delaware. I'm not sure about Conn. I hope it will work out well for everyone.
 
Virginia
Gov. Ralph Northam issued a stay-at-home order effective until June 10.
"We are in a public health crisis, and we need everyone to take this seriously and act responsibly," Northam said in a news release. "Our message to Virginians is clear: stay home."
Northam has made it clear that the state must make decisions based on "science, public health expertise, and data," Secretary of Health and Human Resources Daniel Carey said.

I totally agree.....lots of states say only till the end of April! I'm sure that will be extended....these Phases on re-opening actually sound like another disaster waiting to happen way too soon, jmo.....

And....Connecticut has joined a coalition with the Northeastern states of New Jersey, New York, Pennsylvania, Delaware, Rhode Island and Massachusetts to coordinate the reopening of the economy, according to a news release from New York Governor Andrew Cuomo's office.

Trudeau says Canada will keep the border crossings as is for another 30 days.
Personally I think it is too soon right now, too much is going on, like infections returning a second time to
those that that already had the virus.

Since this was an extension of the previous order, I'd guess that Trudeau will have no problem extending the order again if it's warranted.
 
So far, Ohio Governor DeWine hasn't joined a coalition - but, he started out with "recommendations" and only resorted to "orders" when he saw that there was a lack of voluntary compliance. He has given short term orders, but extends them as needed. No complaints from me, so far. I expect to see more extensions here.
 
Is it possible the ppl in higher positions both politically and medically are messing with us, throwing it out back and forth about
re-opening everything when we all know its gonna be twice as bad as the first round.....just to appease everyone who can't stand isolating anymore....but now we're seeing protesters and next will be the beach goers, geez.

I fear if we don't try reopening during the spring, by summer young people will start attacking seniors because our presence is ruining their young lives and their opportunities.

I think this is an attempt to boost the stock market - every time they make an announcement about opening up, it seems like the stock market bounces upward. Then, a few days later, the reality sets in and it drops again.

I thought it was common knowledge that a lot of the young blame my generation, the boomers, for ruining everything as they see it.
 
I'm pretty sure I don't trust anything from the WHO anymore. They covered up for China. I'm not sure that the cure isn't worse than the disease. We should all take responsibility for our own health and well-being. I don't know what the answer is, but you can't keep the economy on lockdown forever.

Hi Marci - It's the minimal amount of testing versus the population that concerns me most. I believe the best 'one stop source for information' can be found on the website: https://www.worldometers.info/coronavirus/country/us/ (I have verified its info for Ohio.)
 
Very interesting web site, Empty, thanks for posting it. Scrolling through it, it's interesting seeing where each state stands on this, in view of that state's average educational level.
